Passengers who do not wear their masks can be off-loaded or even declared “unruly” under a 2017 rule that empowers airlines to place flyers classified as unruly on a no-fly list, the directorate general of civil aviation (DGCA) said on Wednesday, June 8. The DGCA order comes after a two-judge bench of the Delhi high court on Friday ordered strict action, including de-boarding of passengers violating Covid-19 norms such as the mandatory wearing of masks and maintaining hygiene at airports and on aircraft.
